Good evening.

6,99 € and fun all the way! Only problem: the figures (again!). So I got some AeroBonus pilots, rebuild them, and added some additional details to the SnowSpeeder. Like...

>added seat belt
>scratched side panels
>added aditional PE controls
>added pedals
>opened the canopy (original: closed)
>opened & scratchbuilt maintenance door
>kitbashed stairway
>kitbashed destroyed shield generator

A blue scheme for X-Wings and SnowSpeeders existed in the original drawings - and never made it in the movies. I always wondered and was told that it caused problems with the blue screen (yeah, of course!!! :headslap: ).


Enjoy,

Lucas.

Very cool. I wish my old MPC Snow Speeder had survived to this time...

Many thanks.

Not a competition itself, but theres a StarWars GB on another forum called "Modelers Social Club". A great bunch of awesome projects going on there.

That is an impressive dio. The size is misleading as it views larger than it is.

I always loved this McQuarrie preproduction concept art of the snowspeeder.
